Re: Autoconf test for site scheme files

Hi,

Note that the `GUILE_SITE_DIR' M4 macro gives you
"`guile-config info pkgdatadir`/site".  But as Greg said, you may want
to avoid using it since it is independent of the `--prefix' option that
was passed to your package's `configure'.

OTOH, why have two `site' directories by default?

Thanks,
